Dechen Bhutia

Heart Valves & Corneas Donor
23 years old Dechan Bhutia, adopted daughter of Mr. Ashwini Khurana was a student of Liverpool College UK. She was very ambitious girl, pursuing environmental studies. She had varied interest in music, sports and fashion. A person brimming with confidence, she would never say no to any kind of challenges.

Both the young adults died in a road traffic accident. Motivated by a family friend Mrs. Seema Jajodia, Mr. Ashwini Khurana father of the deceased, donated their tissues (Eyes & heart Valves) after discreetly taking the approval of his wife. Post cremation when everyone heard about the tissue donation there was a magical moment and healed environment – within the family and friends. This act on part of the family has helped immensely in the healing from the loss as the children still live in a certain way.
“It does ease the pain of losing someone knowing that part/s of the person continue to help another person in need….person’s death has some meaning. It gives solace to realise that the life of the loved one is continuing even after his/her death”
